Subject: so.... sleepy...

Saeven doesn't say anything for a while, just walks. She's really not sure what to say. The girl already seems a little over her panic.

"I don't know what you were told," she finally says. "I can imagine that, coming from the mouths of humans, it wasn't too great. Humans aren't the best of characters, you know," she pauses, then adds, "most of the time. So I don't know, really, how to convince you that you're not evil. I can tell you phookas aren't evil, but I can't give you any reason to believe me. Most humans�their church, anyway�thinks all faeries are evil, regardless. But, you like the forest, right? I think you'd mentioned that you prefer it."

Saeven pauses again, looking around. An enigmatic smile crossing her face. "That's all we are, really. Spirits of the nature. Of the rivers and streams and the forest. Different from humans because we haven't lost nature like they have. Humans have seperated themselves from nature, and even the most well-meaning ones... well, it's not the same. You and I, in truth, are closer related to the cat, the deer, the rabbit, the bird than we are to humans."

She stops there for a bit, sitting down on a nearby log. Her attention wanders to a small blossoming flower and she gently runs her fingers across it before looking back up at Deirdre. "Tell me, deep inside, do you feel evil?"
